Little Silhouettes

September 9, 2011



Turn your little one into a work of art with these beautiful silhouette cut outs from renowned silhouette artist Karl Johnson. Working off of a person's profile, and using only a pair of scissors, Karl cuts out each silhouette by hand in a matter of minutes. The process is pretty fascinating (see a video here), as is the artist himself. His limited vision (he can only see from his right eye) allows him too see the world differently from the way most people do -- by an object's shadows -- hence his talent for cutting silhouettes. Needless to say, these are pretty fantastic keepsakes. 


Local mamas can bring their little ones to Pink Olive in Park Slope tomorrow, Saturday, September 10th between 11am and 3pm to get their silhouette hand cut in person by Karl. Each sitting last only 5 minutes. Call Pink Olive directly to book your time slot. 

More weekend fun...
